Do female tourists have to cover up in Turkey?

Unless you are visiting a mosque or traveling to more conservative or rural areas of Turkey that are usually off the beaten path, you wouldn't need to dress any differently than you would when traveling in Europe or North America.

You should dress modestly in knee-length dresses, long skirts, or pants. It is usually possible to borrow or purchase a head covering at the most popular mosques in Istanbul. If you plan to visit mosques, you may consider taking a regular scarf in your bag which you can easily drape over your head and shoulders.

Tipping is a personalthing. I always put my tip in the tip box for alacarte and buffet restaurants. Tip the waiters bar staff early during the holiday. 20 lira is a good tip and you won't feel the need to tip so often.
